Find Ancestors

My thanks for information above, our Death Cert. are good in Victoria, Aust. Certificate has Deceased, Marriage(s), Children, Parents, Medical, Burial or Cremation, Informant and last Reg. Officer - and of course Reg. No. at top of form.
Of course it is only as good as what the informant knows. But I think it is great, good information.

(think she may be below)

UK death certs don't give family members. The only thing you get is the informants name
Here in NZ our death certs contain place of birth and if not born in NZ how long lived in the country. Death cert also says how many children whether sons or daughters but no names. The parents names of the deceased including mothers maiden name.

So very useful for family history
This is what is on recent certs. Not sure about years ago

Hello again Chris, I guess that may have her family listed on her Death Cert. do they do that in England - have the family members and their ages listed? If anyone could advise that would be good.

Chris, No I haven't got her Death Cert. for 1935.

Have you got that Death Cert. for her 1935?...

Chris :)

Thank you very much for this next piece of the puzzle AustinQ.
I did think at one time that I would never find my GG Aunt Mary Ann Smith Findlay - she was the only one of the 10 children, and being the first born too, that I or any of the Findlay family knew anything about. I was so pleased when I found her at long last.
If only there were living relations of Mary Ann Smith Findlay that would contact me to tell me more that would be the icing on cake after all these years of searching. Thank you. :-)

Can't confirm AustinQ's 1901 by occupation because she had obviously become a full time wife and mother...but that 1901 looks good to me!

I wonder if this is Mary and Daughter in 1901- they do state Mary Ann for both- but ages tie in:

1901 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
35, Davenant Road, Islington, London, England

Mary Ann Black Head Married Female 39 1862 - Scotland
Mary Ann Black Daughter Single Female 16 1885 Corset Maker Scotland

1891 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
Inverury Street, Fordoun, Kincardineshire, Scotland

John Allan Head Married Male 61 1830 Retired Carrier Glenbervie, Kincardineshire,
Jane Allan Wife Married Female 45 1846 - Benholm, Kincardineshire,
Mary Ann Black Step Daughter Married Female 31 1860 - Forfar, Forfarshire (Angus),
Mary J Black Granddaughter - Female 7 1884 Scholar Montrose, Forfarshire (Angus),

A tree on Ancestry has Mary Ann and Mary Jane in Fourdoun with John Allan and Jane Allan - she is their granddaughter. John's mother was - again according to the tree - called Jane; John was illegitimate and she later married a Mr Allan

Looked on Scotlands People - always have credits :-) - the only Agnes (with one s) was born in Guthrie Angus in 1880 - illegitimate; mother Jessie Black postal letter carrier.

I wonder if "Jenny" is Mary Jane?

Yes thank you. I still need information on the children (need clarification on names because of Census cross outs) I guess I have to wait for the next Census to come out, but unsure by that time that I will find what I need as they would be married by then.
